I would like to donate new cyrusv3 mailer file (cf/mailer/cyrusv3.m4) to sendmail.org distribution.
I would like to make cyrusv3 mailer file implement 3 mailer:
cyrus-deliver - delivery via "deliver" program with domain stripping cyrus-local - delivery via lmtp socket with domain stripping cyrus-dom - delivery via lmtp socket without domain stripping
Would you suggests another names or yet another mailer ? Do you have any suggestions ?
Could you arrange for one of these to be called `local'? What I do now is to redefine the local mailer to deliver via lmtp. I'd like to continue this practice.
You can use the following line in *.mc file you use to generate sendmail.cf: define(`confLOCAL_MAILER',`cyrusv2') It will make sendmail use cyrusv2 insted of local mailer. http://www.sendmail.org/m4/tweaking_config.html#confLOCAL_MAILER
I promote a few alternative ways of cyrus and sendmail integration, all of them use local mailer for some users and curys||cyrusv2 for other
[ e.g. http://anfi.webhop.net/sendmail/localtab.html ]
I do not share the view that "there should be only one local mailer" so do not expect me to "overload" local mailer name :)
Is there a reason for any site to use more than one of your three mailers?
I think most sites will use only one of the above 3 cyrus mailers - it will be cyrus-local or cyrus-dom depending on version of cyrus used.
But I want all cyrus installation to use the same cf/mailer/cyrusv3.m4 file.
* cyrus-local can be used in
define(`confLOCAL_MAILER',`cyrus-local')
* cyrus-dom can be used in mailertable or via
FEATURE(`stickyhost')
define(`MAIL_HUB',`cyrus-dom')
* cyrus-deliver can be used as hook for a custom wrapper program
